The RAPture: The Thin Line Between God and Hip-Hop
Hip-hop is America's greatest export. In fifty years since its inception it has influenced everything from cereal to sneakers and from pizza to politics. But before there was Hip-Hop, there was Jazz. Before Jazz, there was the Blues. Prior to the Blues, there were Spirituals. And even preceding Spirituals was storytelling set to the beat of African drums.
If you believe God is the progenitor of everything, then music has to fall under that umbrella. Thus, making Hip-Hop a God thing. But how a thing starts doesn't mean that's how it'll remain.
The RAPture is a study in Hip-Hop theology that navigates the reader through Hip-Hop's origins to its impact on society and how religion has its hands in all of it. This book is for those of you stuck between the dichotomy and duality of Praise is What I Do and Back That Azz Up.
The RAPture takes us on a journey that shows us how clearly defining our relationship with God and Hip-Hop, makes it possible for us to love both.
